- /* path -- break filename into directory and file
- *
- * path (filename,direc,file);
- * char *filename,*direc,*file;
- * filename is input; direc and file are output (user-supplied).
- * file will not have any trailing /; direc might.
- *
- * Note these rules:
- * 1. trailing / are ignored (except as first character)
- * 2. x/y is x;y where y contains no / (x may contain /)
- * 3. /y is /;y where y contains no /
- * 4. y is .;y where y contains no /
- * 5. is .;. (null filename)
- * 6. / is /;. (the root directory)
- *
- * Algorithm is this:
- * 1. delete trailing / except in first position
- * 2. if any /, find last one; change to null; y++
- * else y = x; (x is direc; y is file)
- * 3. if y is null, y = .
- * 4. if x equals y, x = .
- * else if x is null, x = /

- * Copied verbatim from PDP-11. Still as messy as ever.
- * Some people have asked for a modification (I think that's a better
- * idea than a new routine) which will change the directory name
- * into an absolute pathname if it isn't one already. The change
- * involves doing a getwd() and prepending that if appropriate, with
- * a "/" in between that and the directory part of the path.
- * If you want to be cute, you can also resolve ".."s at that time.
